Chapter 137 A Handsome Swine

Spencer smiled and said, “It’s okay. I’m not in a hurry, anyways.”

Yuliana heard the persistence in his voice and could no longer refuse. She had to speed up and finishgrading the remaining workbooks.

After she finished grading the workbooks, Yuliana waited at the school gate while Spencer drove hiscar over.

It was a rainy day, so the ground was wet, with puddles of water forming in the low-level areas. Lightsfrom all sources reflected on the puddles, casting a mottled ambiance on the surroundings.

Yuliana stared dazedly at the air for a while.

Spencer arrived in his car not long after. Despite the rain, he got off the car and opened the door forYuliana. He also helped her store her umbrella before he trotted to the driver’s seat after she got insidethe car. Yuliana glanced at the rearview mirror once the car started moving slowly and froze for amoment. The car behind us seems familiar,” she thought.

She tried to get a second look at the car, but the car had already gone far, leaving a faint silhouette.Spencer noticed Yuliana’s strange behavior and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Yuliana shook her head and said, “It’s nothing.”

They arrived at the entrance of Yuliana’s residential area in no time. She thanked Spencer for the rideand got off the car with her umbrella.

Spencer did not leave immediately. He watched Yuliana enter the residential area before he switchedthe gear and drove away.

It was dark when Yuliana got home.

Despite the bad premonition she was feeling. Yuliana still stood at the door of her house for twoseconds before she turned on the lights in the living room. She then changed her shoes into a pair oreplaceoor slippers and took her umbrella to the balcony.

Yuliana debated with herself whether to cook something to eat or not after she changed her clothes.She decided to order takeouts since she was not in the mood.

Yuliana clicked on the takeouts app and found she had almost ordered food from all the nearbyrestaurants before as she scrolled through the page. In the end, she could not decide on what to eat.She gradually lost focus. The screen of her phone began to appear blurry to her eyes.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Yuliana was startled and turned toward the door on reflex.

She got up and went to open the door. Christopher stood at the door with his hair wet, the shouldersarea of his coat a few shades darker. It was obvious that he had walked under the rain.

Yuliana looked Christopher in the eye and was about to ask something, but she decided to keep silentwhen her eyes met his cold gaze. In the end, she did not say anything. She turned to the bathroom andtook out a dry towel before she handed it to him.

Christopher took the towel and wiped his hair haphazardly. He then clicked on WhatsApp and acceptedMargaret’s friend request.

The phone vibrated twice. It was Margaret who sent a voice message.

Meanwhile, Yuliana walked past him and went to her room.

Christopher clicked on the voice message. Margaret’s voice sounded. “Christopher, what are you doingright now? Do you want to come out for a drink?”

Christopher pressed the voice message button and replied, “Send me the location.”

The bedroom door was closed after he said that.

Christopher raised his gaze and glanced at the door. The expression on his face was difficult to read.His phone vibrated again. It was still Margaret who sent the location and another voice message.

He ignored it and threw the phone aside.

After a while, Christopher opened the door and went in. Yuliana was sitting in front of the computer, butthe screen was dark. It was unknown what was in her mind. She turned her head and looked at thedoor when

she heard the sound of it opening. Her eyes then met Christopher’s directly.

After a moment of silence, Christopher asked, “Why don’t you tell me you’re searching for a house?”

Yuliana turned around and looked at the figure reflected on the computer screen. She replied calmly,“You are so busy. How can I disturb you?”

Christopher smiled. “You can’t disturb me, but you can disturb other men?”

Yuliana frowned and turned back to look at him. “What do you mean by that?”

The two were locked in a stalemate.

Christopher turned around and left after he stared at Yuliana for a while.

Yuliana’s mind was in disarray once she heard the door shut.

Yuliana did not know what went wrong.

They were obviously getting along well before, so she wondered why this was happening again.

Christopher did not come back after that night. Neither of them contacted the other.

Yuliana went to and fro her work as usual. She was thankful that the matter with the new house hadbeen settled.

A real estate agent had contacted her. There were three apartments for rent in the nearby residentialarea. The apartments were well-decorated and had all kinds of equipment that met Yuliana’s needs.

Yuliana checked one of the apartments on Saturday. It was a regular apartment, but it had excellentlighting and also a large balcony. As the real estate agent said, the decoration style, furniture, andequipment all met her needs.

The rent was also appropriate.

As a result, Yuliana signed a contract with the real estate agent after she saw the apartment and paidthe

rent for three months.

Yuliana packed her things at her current house that weekend after she signed the contract. Sheplanned to move to the new apartment next weekend.

Then, she got the latest news about Christopher on Instagram.

It was a short video sent from Margaret’s account, with the caption that read: [A handsome swine.]

In the video, Margaret pointed at several men not far away, with half of her face showing on the screen.Christopher was among the men she pointed at. His blonde hair was very conspicuous in the crowd.

The video was obviously taken secretly, but it showed a vague impression that it was taken by a lover.Her caption for the video was also very ambiguous.

The location showed that they were in Romdale.

There were likes and comments from the members of the Ziegler family.

[Marge, did you go to Romdale?]

[You have a boyfriend now, Marge?]

[Which one is Marge’s handsome swine?]

In response, Margaret only replied with an emoji that showed a bashful expression.
